Traveling this gorgeous country extensively since she was 12 years old, Charlie fell in love with the west and North Idaho. Finally, in 2016 she purchased this little slice of paradise in the remote Far North Idaho wilderness where she turned an old hunting property into an Offgrid Homestead. While many places have been stripped of trees only to be replanted by all the same species, this place was sustainably and privately logged and much of the natural tree diversity exists. Not many places can you find many different firs, pines, larch, cedar, alders, and birch all in one place. Perched at the edge of wilderness areas, national forests, and timberlands but just off a main road, you find yourself transported into the wild in a short drive! The property is frequented daily by all types of wildlife and is hugged by TWO mountain ranges. The homestead is managed in a permaculture design with back-to-Eden and HuglekulUtr gardens to have minimal impact on the land. Learn more about this land: Easy access just 1/2 mile off main paved road with views of BOTH the Purcell and Cabinet Mountain Ranges. Our little slice of paradise is a great stop on your way to/from Glacier National Park (100 mi) or to come enjoy all that North Idaho and Western Montana has to offer. We are just a few miles from the Montana border and you can walk from your campsite to Kaniksu National Forest. We're just a 15 minute drive to Bonners Ferry where you can enjoy the Kootenai National Wildlife Refuge, Snow Creek Falls, rent kayaks and venture on the Kootenai River, visit the Boundary County Museum, an Antique Mall on the way to town is always full of treasures, play at Kootenai Casino, visit wineries and breweries, many great local restaurants boasting great cuisine with small town charm including an AMAZING farmers market every Saturday May - September and great downtown shopping. Or if you are up for a scenic drive you can venture to visit the Yaak Falls, Kootenai Falls, Ross Creek Cedars, Baldy Lookout, Schweitzer Ski Resort, and much more. Here at our little offgrid homestead you have choice of tent camping in the forest or tent/van/car/rv camping in our field next to the Larch grove and Timberland property. With the river close by eagles are frequently soaring overhead. Turkey, deer, and elk are passing through daily. And there is no neighbors to be seen except our small chicken flock and you may be greeted by Buddy the Dog! Although if you are not a dog person feel free to let us know and we will accommodate you! If you have any questions about local activities, we'll happily provide you with great ideas and directions. Farm fresh eggs and firewood available for purchase and 5 gallons of non-potable water available with use of provided offgrid foot pump sink. Please note there is no cell service. If you want peace and minimal contact we can email everything in advance to have your accommodations met upon arrival and if you want to stop and chat about local activities or the offgrid homestead life just say the word; we're happy to be hosting you and want to make your experience a good one in any way we can! Groups welcome! There are several locations where you can camp separately or together. RVs limited to dry seasons May-September due to road conditions. While we are not far off the main road our road and drive require 4x4 October - April.

Magical hill top off-grid cabin with views of Upper Pack River and beyond. Privacy and convenience meet at our solar supported Tree Top Cabin. Enjoy a fully equipped kitchen, potable water, inside off grid bathroom, high quality mattress, linens, and a covered deck with gas grill. Guests can book a massage or healing energy work as part of their stay, hike the on-property trails or visit any number of stunning trails, lakes, waterfalls or downtown Sandpoint within 15-30 minutes of the cabin. **ALL VISITORS MUST HIKE IN** Camp hosts will bring your bags to the cabin but guests will park at the bottom of the property and walk up a 10 min well kept, but still moderate trail to the accommodation. Check-ins must arrive at least 1hr. before nightfall in order to safely traverse the trail to the cabin. Wildflowers and wildlife abound your own private bungalow in the North Idaho woods…

4. Rocky Top Retreat - Off Grid Cabin

34mi from Yaak · 1 site · Lodging

This cabin sits on 60 acres of private land with many opportunities for wilderness activities with nearby lakes, streams, and small town attractions. The cabin is powered by solar energy with a back up generator that is very rarely needed. It is secluded from neighbors and remote, but has the comforts of home and even fiber optic wi-fi (if desired, since you are trying to get away, right?) ;)

2 nights at Upper Pack River Cottage

lots to explore in the upper pack river valley. Our experience with Mike as a host was fantastic, very accommodating. The cottage is very cozy and has many little extras stocked insids, flashlights right where you need them if your going out in the night, board games and cards, reading material, a book on the hiking trails in the area, cutlery and the shower works great. We highly recommend this getaway. This cottage would also be a great location to have close access to hunting in the area during the season as well.

The Hosts are so solid. People you want in your life. Kind, genuine. For me this is important and makes all the difference in this life and especially when sharing community. However, It wouldn’t really matter if you didn’t like them anyway, because in the whispering woods of their remote property, the cabin is on its own level. You’re all alone in the Magic of the hill top. Great place to reset, write, read. Or, Do absolutely nothing with your dog. Also a good jump off point to many trails and everything Panhandle. 20 minutes from Sandpoint. We came from Priest Lake and were headed to Glacier via the Swinging Bridge route on 2. Good pillows, comfortable bed, cast iron, games, telescope, wall of windows, yet so private. Only the soaring Eagles will see you. Doug brought me maps and books and Jessica brought me solutions for anything that came up along my way. Great communication. Reliable. Fair. Not for the Bougie. Unless you’re trying to come back to earth.

Quiet little place just a few minutes off the highway. Very kind owner- gave us a few local hiking recos. Free range chickens will keep you entertained. Great for stargazing. Rooster will make sure you get an early start to your day. About 20 min from Bonners Ferry where there are services.

What a perfect stay! Charlie's site is lovely! I saw wild turkeys and deer as I walked around the property. She is so kind and generous. The compost toilet is just what you need for a rustic, simple camp experience. I bought some fresh eggs from her too! Thank you!
